An MTBF of 20,000 really isn’t that impressive at all, I’d certainly not want to use it. If I had a display with such a low MTBF, I’d try and hide that fact, not advertise it

In reply to DB.

Thanks for picking that up DB.
I re-checked the document, and it says 20,000, so I have passed your comment to Inelco Hunter for an answer.
Will update later today, hopefully.

You’re going to need to explain this to me. It looks like the MTBF is 20,000 hours, which I consider low. If you have 20 installed somewhere, running 24/7, you’d expect to have to replace one every 1,000 hours (42 days) on average. I know that displays are not that reliable in general, but 20,000 MTBF hours seems to be on the low side.
